Motion planning and kinematics topics with an emphasis on geometric reasoning, programming and matrix computations. Motion planning: configuration spaces, sensor-based planning, decomposition and sampling methods, and advanced planning algorithms. Kinematics: reference frames, rotations and displacements, kinematic motion models.

Prerequisites: Engr 3; and either ME 17 or ECE 130C (may be taken concurrently). Not open for credit to students who have completed ME 170A or ECE 181A.
